• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

Originally published in 1935 and reprinted now because of its current political relevance, this work concentrates on the events which led to the 1932 installation of Faisal as King of Iraq at the termination of the British Mandate. Though it deals chiefly with politics at the time, the book also offers important insights into current developments in Iraq and their historical significance. Anyone interested in the future of Iraq and the Middle East at large will find this a compelling read.
